Trusted Partitions for Oracle Engineered Systems


Goal: flexible Sub-Capacity-Licensing based on Oracle VM

Requirements:

– Enterprise Manager (see My Oracle Support Note 1471719.1)

– Connected Mode: Usage reported via My Oracle Support

– Disconnected Mode: quarterly Reports, locally stored for two years

Business with PCA


General purpose private cloud

platform:

We have a solution to optimize the

Oracle SW Stack licensing

The system is comparable good…

… the Trusted Partition is the USP

Give it a try, most customers have:

… different HW vendor anyway

… use different DB products

… run on different OSs

Why not run also two Hypervisor?

… for the sake of license savings?


Time to know, what the PCA based

Platform is all about

Full Tenant Isolation: Tenant Groups

Utilizes Oracle VM Server Pool technology

– Add/remove servers, networks, and VMs to tenant

groups to isolate resources/users

A tenant group can have a mix of hardware types (e.g.

X4-2, X5-2, X6-2)

– VM live migration: forward compatible

– VM live migration: not backwards compatible

Networks can be:

– PVI internal to the rack (node-to-node)

– Different 10GbE ports per tenant groups

– External VLAN enabled networks through 10GbE

ports

All networks built with HA

Oracle Intelligent Storage ProtocolDatabase and storage coengineering

Intelligence is in the code within both the

database and storage

Available only with Oracle Database 12c and

Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance OS 8 and above

Storage awareness of database workload

Database sends cues about each I/O to the

storage

Over 70 database I/O types are recognized

Cues grouped into five distinct categories by

storage

Information used by storage to adaptively and

automatically adjust for optimal efficiency

Conclusion


As an Oracle SW Stack Platform next to a general purpose Cloud

Platform, it has its place

Latest Compute Nodes X7-2 in Dec 2017

The license advantages can justify the costs …

Platform-Ready configuration and operation needs expertise

– Otherwise consider Oracle Cloud Machine (OCM)

– Automatization is key

We believe in the market chance of PCA Platform and looking

forward solving your infrastructure challenges with it
